I put a few drops on a few of the buggers, and looks like it kills
them. Any long-term effects? Any other products recommended?

The best product I can recommend is buing some peppermint shrimps.

Tried them; they don't work. Neither did copper-bands.
I had one actually eat flake food instead.

Of course shrimp will eat flake food - why are you surprised?

The copper-band is a butterfly fish. One could look it up.

I know what is fish and what is shrimp.
We were talking about shrimps originally and it was not clear
which was eating flakes causing your surprise...
In both cases they will prefer flake food as easy food source.

If you have a copper-band which eats flake food, you have
an unusual fish, as is noted in most of the literature.

So make your mind - was yours eating flake food or was not? :-)

Note, Aiptasia will also eat flake food, so if you feed too much
and flakes float in the water you are feeding the pests, too...

In any event, I'd still like some feedback on the Blue Life, if
anyone's tried it.

Mike, are you the manufacturer rep? ;-)

I must have mistaken this group for one which discusses issues
surrounding reef tanks. I seem to have wandered into one where
people change questions to ones they can answer. My apologies.

You asked us for opinion - you got it:

No, I did not get it.

I got an opinion on shrimp, which is available in all the standard
books.

So you decided throw away proven and safe method
and go with unknown chemical in a pretty bottle instead... :-)
